Not me. No where close enough to feel it. I'm about 4 hours north of the bay.

That would be me

People and pets (here) are fine, house is ok, brand new tv is not Damn near all of my plates and glasses/cups are in the trash. Water smells funny (well funnier than usual). Have some real minor front walk/driveway repair to do as well as some plumbing (shower now drips and so does the kitchen sink). Plumbing is from the '50s so not too surprised some of it broke.

The location and depth of the quake is what made it hit so hard. The ground around here is not quite swampy but it's very fluid. No good bedrock.

yea, what they said!

seriously though, glad to hear all is almost well. i was surprised KTVU had non-stop coverage of the damage all night yesterday. i was hoping to catch other news but it guess thats the top and only story for them right now…
back to work this week guys. ughh.. wishing i was still getting lost in the hills.
still debating next project for truck… new PS pump (steering box) or torque converter, or… not sure. maybe even a new coat of paint/body work…
have a good monday fellas.

Tacos?

Oddly enough, we had beans, rice and pulled pork for dinner. No tortillas, though. Salsa and sour cream were on hand, too.

Have a nice evening, y'all.

I am still trying to finish off my box of microwave taquitos, so no tacos here either, just their little brother, although actually they look like a little brother to the burrito.

Now I have seen everything.

Arizona Shooting Range Instructor Killed by Girl With Uzi - NBC News

Who gives a 9 year old girl an Uzi to shoot? Come on, SOMEBODY has to have common sense.
